carole over at strangelittlemama and amanda at wannabe (totally unrelated, but check out that adorable bag she bought recently on etsy, i love it!) sent in the pattern that i cast on for, twitterpated by zephyr style. the yarn i chose wasn't right, so i have to frog, but i am sure i have something in the stash to whip this up.
i am also liking this berroco lorraine pattern sent in by lori, who didn't send a link to her blog so i am assuming she probably doesn't have one. thanks lori!
for those who send their blog address i have added you all to my bloglines. now i can see what you are up to! thanks again everyone, i got close to 100 emails with so much great stuff.
so i have another favor - if you are from minneapolis, have been to minneapolis etc. and have any yarn shopping advice, it would be much appreciated. i see that there are a ton of shops there and several are open until 8 which is fantastic since i will be in training all day! i leave sunday for a work trip there (on my birthday - blasted!). i am going with a co-worker who is also a good friend so we should have some fun. the mall of america is on my must-do list and on his is the spot in which mary tyler moore throws up her hat at the beginning of the show (don't ask, i have never seen the show). my email is goodtobegirlATgmailDOTcom or leave a comment. oh, and technically we will be staying in eden prairie.

Hey lady! I am using Cascade Cotton Rich for mine and it's knitting up soooo nice. It's a nice cotton...not stiff and crunchy...it flows nicely. I'll post pics of progress maybe today. I still have to figure out which handles to use.
I LURVE my bag too...she also made me a custom pouch to put in it out of the same fabric for lipgloss etc. :)
travel safe and have fun on your trip!
I highly recommend Depth of Field Yarn. They have a ton of stuff!!!

You should check out Crafty Planet! It's a great little shop!

The flirty bag is cute!! Can't wait to see yours if you can find a suitable yarn :-D
Have a nice trip!
Did you see the most recent Twitterpated bag she did? Wide ribbing (6x6, I think) for the body, cute-cute!!
Have a good trip...I'll cross my fingers that you can still manage to have some fun even though you're there for work.

If you make it downtown and have a drink, you must hit Brits for some bocce ball on their roof....how fun is that?
OH! MY! GOD! you have never ever seen mary tyler moore? NEVER?!
you do know it's a classic show. show of shows. groundbreaking in a "young single woman strikes out on her own and makes a life for herself" kind of way.
wow, that's so weird that you've never seen the show.
hey have a good trip to Minneapolis by the way.
I second the vote for Depth of Field, and I also strongly recommend Needlework Unlimited (http://www.needleworkunlimited.com). It's in Edina, which is right by Eden Prairie. And it's near 50th and France which is a very fun little neighborhood to shop in. Their yarn selection is ginormous, and the staff is friendly -- Caryn from Fuzzy Noodle Knits works there. Have a fun trip!
